Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annotations Upon Popular Hymns, Vol. 1 Madame Antoinette Sterling once said with great spirit to me, They say that I preach in my singing; 501 do; 501 try to do; so I mean to do always! And no one that ever heard this gifted artist with her clear and distinct enunciation, her matchlessly pathetic tones, her magnetic impulse forcing tears in his eyes when he could not stop to notice that she had tears in her own - no one who ever heard her in her wonderful way preach The Lord is my Shepherd, or Oh, rest in the Lord, wait patiently for him, could doubt whether Christ's love might be offered in the strains of a contralto hymn. To begin with, this whole plan, like everything else in the work of our Master, is a matter of faith - of living faith and experimental confidence. The man who attempts to conduct a praise service must believe that it has a veritable existence of its own, that it is a helpful and sure rewarder of him who diligently seeks it; any misgiving is ruin. It is not to be looked upon as a musical entertainment, nor can it be put forward as a make shift for a sermon; it is nothing, nothing at all, unless it is what it purports to be, a sanctuary service of adoring and grateful praise of Almighty God. The minister must be just as devout in it as he would be at a communion the choir must not suffer themselves to be beguiled into imagining it as a fresh and beautiful opportunity for a parade or display. It is simply a service for a worshipful people, full of joyous love and thanksgiving to their Maker. Hence it should be treated as an instrument of prodigious energy either for good or for evil. It must be used, therefore, with supreme care lest it should be retorted into a danger and a discouragement, reacting upon the congregation like an Afghan's boomerang. There is not in all our treasury of resources a more potent force than this of real honest singing of God's praises by masses of men, women, and children.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annotations Upon Popular Hymns, Vol. 1 These Annotations have been provided with Indexes, particular and voluminous, so that references to hymns by the Authors of them, as well as by the First Lines of them, can easily be reached. Hence they might be used with almost all the best hymnals in common employment in evangelical churches. For the sake of following some order and establishing some limit in the selection, the hymns have been chosen mostly from Laudes Domini, issued in 1884, and New Laudes Domini, issued in 1892 - two manuals for singing by choirs and congregations, which have attained a phenomenally wide use among the various Christian denominations. It is interesting to notice an intelligent growth in public sentiment concerning the general subject of hymnological study. Churches now are not satisfied with mere stanzas which might be lined out to be sung in fragments. They want hymns that are poetical in spirit and in structure rhythmical and lyrical. Within a few years no hymnbook has had prosperity unless it has supplied the names of the authors with at least some hints concerning their biographies. Out of this has rapidly been developed a taste for inquiry concerning the histories of particular pieces which God's singing people have learned to love. And a great wealth of new compositions has suddenly been put within the glad reach of the various denominations of Christians during the three decades just closing the nineteenth century. Little by little the familiar names of Ray Palmer, Charlotte Elliott, Horatius Bonar, Edward Caswall, Frances Ridley Havergal, Thomas Hastings, and John Mason Neale have advanced into fame until their contributions to the sacred songs of the religious world are rivaling in number and worth those of Isaac Watts, Anne Steele, James Montgomery, and even John Newton and William Cowper and Charles Wesley. We all want to know about these choristers of many choirs and lands and tongues, many of whom are already singing in their white robes on the other side of the mysterious vail. The volume now laid before the public has grown slowly through a period of years. It has been prepared specially as a help for "Praise Meetings," or so-called "Services of Song." Almost any hymn appropriate to such employment in a promiscuous Sabbath gathering of God's devout people may be found here suitably noticed. It lowers the tone of joyous and happy-hearted worship of the Highest to spend the hours announced for communion and thanksgiving in singing the pieces appropriate only to camp meetings and to gospel missions for the conversion of sinners. It is very rare, if ever, that hymns of wrestling conviction or of poignant penitence can be utilized in a jubilant act of worship. The various paragraphs of incident and exposition, of biography, history, literary criticism, and art suggestion, which are attached now and then to the data of authorship and composition in the book, cannot be appreciated nor even understood unless this explanation is intelligently accepted. The attempt is made in each annotation to give to an inexperienced leader a thought of such a character that he will find a hint in it or out of it available in the course of the comment he will have to frame as he introduces each piece to be sung. Much depends on the taste and aptitude of the minister who presides in these services. He must always preach. No spiritual man has any business to give up a Christian pulpit on the Lord's Day to anything besides preaching God's gospel of salvation to men.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Vedic Hymns, Vol. 1 It is well known that Professor von Roth, one of our most eminent Vedic scholars, holds the very opposite Opinion. He declares that a metrical translation is the best com mentary, and that if he could ever think of a translation of the Rig-veda, he would throw the chief weight, not on the notes, but on the translation of the text. 'a translation, ' he writes, 'must speak for itself. AS a rule, it only re quires a commentary where it is not directly convincing, and where the translator does not feel secure.' Between Opinions so diametrically opposed, no com promise seems possible, and yet I feel convinced that when we come to discuss any controverted passage, Professor von Roth will have to adopt exactly the same principles of translation which I have followed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hymn Treasures Their number is legion. This does not mean that every hymn is a treasure. There are worthless hymns as truly as there are worth less gems. Yet a careful examination of any standard hymnal will reveal a surprisingly large number of really great hymns, besides a multi tude of useful lyrics which could ill be spared. When it is remembered that no one book con tains all the valuable hymns, some conception of their number can be gained. Concerning their variety it may be said that there are three 'classes of hymn treasures; namely, historical, literary, and devotional. All hymns worthy the name belong to one of these classes, some to more than one, and a few to all three. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
